Its like the third reference ive seen in as many days.  And folks act like its all big news.Despite last years thread about imagining a dnd world on a tidally locked planet based on an article about gliese 581.Its lime people have blinders on with science articles.  They dont know whats new, or addendum.And these articles don't do any followup. So you'll never see anything saying "remember that planet we found last year, well we think it might support life"All these science articles are like filler news. Its short, teasing and often speculative.Like the aircar i read about over 10 years ago. It really exists, but cant be flight tested. And you'll see articles and pics of it from time to time. Has nothing ever come of this?Or the various popular science articles.  I remember reading an article about memory being the size of a credit card and holding at least a GB. What became of that technology? How did it contribute to the memory technologies of today?</blockquote>
